Inventor Studio Animate Constraints Problem

[roberto.cruys]

I'm having trouble animating a cylinder in Inventor Studio. When in assembly mode i can use drive constraint on mate: 5+/- of the piston and it works without a problem. However when i'm in studio mode and try to animate this constraint it won't move a bit.

I'm guessing the problem would have something to do with the clevis attached to the piston but I can't seem to figure out what exactly. I'd like to get this piston moving cause this cylinder is part of a bigger assembly and i need to get the whole assembly moving later on.

Some advice would come in very appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Robert

I had a quick look of your model, edit mate 5 and check the Use offset as Resting position in limits tab, Inventor Studio will work well. You can have a try and let me know if you still have problem.
